Lyrics Can The Haves Use Their Brains - McCarthy

Can The Haves Use Their Brains

The haves, can they use their brains?
Or is there time to take enough
Keeping the have-nothings down?
Put yourself in their place
Would you be thinking clearly if you were them?
The fat cats say
They want what is best for everyone
What if is best for us
The fat cats are swept from the earth?
Put yourself in their place
Would you be thinking clearly if you were them?
Everything obvious they make unclear
What do two and two make?
The fat cats say
They want what is best for everyone
But what if is best for us
If they are all swept away for good?
Everything obvious they make unclear
What do two and two make?
Everything simple they complicate
What do two and two make?
The haves, can they use their brains?
Or are they only keeping the have-nots down?
